REVIEW & INTERVIEW | MARV RADIO RELEASES NEW ALBUM 'MANTRA'

Who is Marv Radio?

“A groundbreaking musician and sonic scientist. He has been hacking his own voice to use as a tool for music, art and therapy for over 18 years. Marv is known for his out-of-this-world live music and theatre shows where he combines beatboxing, live looping, singing and rap to make high energy motivational hip hop.”

Mantra is the latest project from the versatile being known as Marv Radio. To call this an album really does short sell the Mantra experience because it is an audio movie/documentary. Marv Radio really gives us a truly no holds barred insight into his life and experiences. He gives us a true reflection & insight into the inner workings of his soul as he narrates his story. This is a purely vocal album minus one track. So, everything you hear or experience on Mantra is 100% all produced Marv Radio which really adds another level of depth to the Mantra experience.

To express how truly unique Mantra is and how raw the project is, listen to tracks like ‘Road 2 Ruin’ where Marv tells his story about trying to take his life as a young child and how listening to Tupac saved his life. Or the crazy story of ‘Falling Part 1’ on how he fell down a mountain in Peru and dislocated his spine, and then was introduced to the sacred healing plants and how this healed him as well as meeting inter-dimensional beings. Marv Radio really does dig deep on Mantra and leaves very little to the imagination, he covers relationships, his love for music, seeking self, moving back in with his mum, getting back up when you have been broken down, love and much more.

This is truly a super unique project and a drastic change from the norm, and as such I would definitely recommend that you do not approach this like a regular album. Come with an open mind and soul and dive into the experience and enjoy the journey.
